Session 3 Passion and CPD Summer Residential June 2008
Passion and CPD How this ‘passion’ enquiry developed • History of 17 October 2007 session • What we are trying to find out • a) what is passion • b) how is it related to your CPD • c) how can it get triggered/planned for
Passion and CPD We asked at the teacher interview • “Some people talked about a link between CPD and passion. Have you experienced something like that? Could you please explain what passion for you would be?”
Passion and CPD What we did with these replies – using principles of phenomenology and phenomenological reduction • Phenomenological reduction • “‘phenomenological reduction’ aims to locate the ‘pure data’. To do that, reflection has to be on the content of the mind to the exclusion of everything else” • (Husserl, 1964, ppxvi, xvii, 34, 35).
Passion and CPD How Els does this I have to become conscious of my consciousness and to think carefully about what goes on in my mind, looking for its structures and the phenomena that identify these structures. I inspect my own experiences, then try to connect with the experience of others.
Passion and CPD First step – coding (show spreadsheet)
Passion and CPD Next step – validation of identified phenomena and then re-coding using phenomenological reduction Later: looking at correlations, causal effects – analytical frameworks
Passion and CPD What we would like you to do, using phenomenological reduction is • Next step – validating of identified phenomena and then re-coding using phenomenological reduction • Group, re-group the phenomena • Find out if there are other phenomena • Use your creative thinking • It is not about agreeing – also very much about disagreeing, and finding out subtleties
Passion and CPD For this (all repeated on and in envelope) • Suggested way of working: • Work and discuss etc in groups of maximum 3 • You do not have to answer all questions, or address all phenomena • Read the phenomena and questions and examples • Think and ponder • Pick some that resonate with your experiences • Add your own examples on post its (mention the phenomenon) to make it relevant to you • Probe each other deeply (phenomenological reduction)
Passion and CPD • Write down your thoughts on post-its (label phenomenon) • Make distinction if you can between account of (specific examples of YOUR experiences of what happened) and account for (ideas and interpretations about how things might have come about) • Group, re-group, amend phenomena • Use paper, pens, glue, scissors etc to express your thinking • If stuck, please ask Marie, Christine, Els, Jenni or Ros to get unstuck
